Life services
1. On-campus accommodation
International students can apply for on-campus accommodation, sign an agreement when moving into the dormitory, and go through relevant procedures for check-in. During your stay, please abide by our accommodation regulations. For international students who extend their study period, the school does not provide on-campus housing.
In order to meet the diverse housing needs of students, international student dormitories have set up different room types, including three rooms and one living room, two rooms and one living room, etc., and set different rent standards according to the area of the house.
The dormitory for international students is equipped with furniture such as wardrobes, writing desks, beds, chairs, and household appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, washing machines, electric heaters, microwave ovens, electric kettles, water heaters, gas stoves, hoods, etc. The school also arranges regular cleaning and maintenance for the dormitory of international students and hires a property company to manage the dormitory.
2. Off-campus accommodation
International students can also live off-campus. Students who need to rent a house off-campus can check rental information through real estate agencies, but they must go through the registration procedures at the police station where they live. Remind everyone that when you stay off-campus, you must ensure that the source of housing information is reliable, the leasing procedures are complete and legal, and the leasing permit must be filed at the local police station. You should also greet the local neighborhood committee. All in all, it is necessary to ensure that the entire renting procedure is complete, legal and reliable.
During the study period, many students’ addresses and contact information will change. Please remember to update your new address, phone number and email address to the International College in time, because we will often send important notices, and we need to contact you in case of emergency. When you contact, you can maintain normal and smooth contact only if you master the accurate contact information. We can also provide timely help when you have difficulties or problems. We will keep your contact information confidential.
3. Restaurant canteen
There are a variety of restaurants, canteens, supermarkets, and coffee shops on the campus of HKUST, providing a variety of food services for teachers and students on campus. In addition, on average, a meal in the cafeteria costs about ten yuan, and eating in the on-campus cafeteria is an affordable option.
There are many canteens for teachers and students on campus. The cafeteria operates strictly according to the opening hours, so please pay special attention. Most canteens provide lunch between 11:30 and 1:00, and dinner between 5 pm and 7 pm. The opening hours of each restaurant will be listed in the table below.
In the cafeteria, you can find a row of stalls. You need to tell the waiter which dishes you want and then swipes the campus card on the credit card machine to pay for the meal. Most canteens do not accept cash and online payment.
(Note: The restaurants marked blue provide halal food)
